28th - 29th October 2008, The Grand Hyatt, Dubai

It has been a turbulent year for the oil industry, driven by the ever-rising cost of crude oil to new heights. Base oils are no exception, spurred on by high feedstock costs and global shortages. Changes are occurring too in the lubricants market. Higher specification oils are demanded in the gasoline passenger car sector and also in the diesel sector. Formulators are being driven to seek higher quality base stocks, but it is all at a price and to some degree of risk. What does it all mean for the lubricants companies?

The Middle East is one of the more exciting regions to see the developments in the marketplace. A fascinating mix of older technologies co-exists with state-of-the-art production sites. 

Come to this ICIS Conference in Dubai and see for yourself what the experts say about the future for base oils and lubricants. Share your experiences with others who have faced similar issues.
